Hey Guys 'n' Gals,
Im looking to build a new Gaming and Entertainment (Blu-Ray Movies ect) Machine. Below is the core spec im looking to put inside it. Was hoping to get peoples verdict on it. This is the first time I've had money enough to throw at a PC that I really want.
The main thing I'm worried about is it not working together. I'm quite confident in building PC's but when it comes to this kind of money a 2nd opinion (or 3rd 4th 5th... ect) doesn't hurt.
Core Bitz
Case (~£135)
Coolermaster HAF X Case
Motherboard (~£300)
Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z Z68 Socket 1155 8 Channel HD Audio EATX Motherboard
Processor (~£200)
Intel Core i7 2600k 3.4GHz Socket 1155
CPU Cooling (~£50)
Corsair Hydro Series H60
GFX (~£540)
ASUS GTX 590 dual-GPU graphics card with 3GB GDDR5
Memory (~£65 x2)
Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 2000MHz XMS3 Memory Kit CL9 1.65V x2
Sound Card (~£75)
Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series
PSU (~£220)
Corsair Professional Series Gold AX 1200W Modular PSU
Storage
Corsair 120GB Force 3 SSD (~£80)
WD 300GB 3.5" SATA-III 6Gb/s VELOCIRAPTOR Hard Drive - 10,000RPM x2 (~£200 x2) (RAID 0)
Corsair WD 2TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s Caviar Green Hard Drive (Internal) (~£75)
I will be attaching a number of Gaming (Gamepads, Joysticks, Gaming Mouse n Keyboard ect.), Visual (2 22" LED Monitors and a 42" TV) and Audio (5.1 Surround and Gaming Headset) Peripherals to it. And will be running Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium on it.
All feed back is appreciated, I have money to throw at this machine to make it shiny so I'm not necessarily looking for the cheapest option. (That being said, I'm not made of money )
Many thanks,
Dave.
